This author at her best!5
I've read 60 of her books so far and I believe this to be the most well written in terms of beautifully soaring prose, poetical love notes, inspiring life-changing conversions and engaging secondary characters. Such a delight that I wish there were a sequel to this one.

Love-at-first-sight on best man John Saxon's part as he espies Mary Elizabeth walk up the isle as maid-of-honor. She drives him to the train station after the wedding as he blurts out his love. As Mary tries to find out all about him from his friends, they embark on a long-distance correspondence. By the time they see each other again, their lives have become gloriously entangled.

Told from the standpoint of both lovers (more from Mary), and key mutual friend of theirs, a well-developed early-teen character. More humor than usual from GLH. Best written of what I've seen so far, and tied for my favorite of hers with about eight other stories.

A new favorite of GHL. Keeps you interested from pg one. to the end.If you love romance,mystry,Christ,and the bad guy losing you'll love this book. You'll love to follow Mary Elizabeth on her journey w/cousin Sam.

Lovely!5
Oh my, this book is just, oh! so wonderful! I picked it up in a vintage thrift store and have read it several times since. I gave it to my mother to read as well...she thought it was marvelous! This is by far my favorite book. Charming, simple, elegant, and makes me feel good every time I read it. Do read it for yourself, you will not be able to put it down!
